Join us for a day of unprecedented insights into key overseas markets and gain valuable insights into sourcing, and a comprehensive overview of available funding. This event is supported by our new STC member, James Cowper Kreston, who offer their expertise in exploring international markets and setting up export operations. We will bring together experts to share their insights on the various market opportunities in key markets across the world, as well as the opportunity to learn more about the various financial support packages that are available to fund your export ambitions.

Speakers joining us on the morning are:

  • Steve Bridges of the Indiana Economic Development Corporation who will provide an in-depth look at the opportunities currently available for cluster companies in the USA.
  • David Gregory and Shaowei He from the CBBC and CEEC to share insights into the Chinese market and how to take steps to access these opportunities.
  • UK Export Finance helps UK companies ensure export opportunities don’t fail due to lack of finance. Johanna Archer and Hugh Francis will explain how it all works and provide some successful case studies as well.
  • S3 Group’s Tom Van der Heyden and Adrian Pryce who will explore how the changing dynamics with the Chinese market may impact on our reliance on the Asian cost advantage and look at potential sourcing opportunities elsewhere in Asia.
  • Meera Rajah from James Cowper Kreston will offer invaluable top tips on importing and exporting activities.
